It's so refreshing to see how much taller of a team we have this year. It's also very exciting
to see how athletic all these bigs are.... If they continue to be active and smart we might be a very
good team on both sides of the ball.

I say start Mozgov when we come back to states and see how he plays with starting unit.
I prefer Turiaf off the bench anyway...

Either way I hope we keep this team in tact maybe just add another PG ...... Every other position looks
solid. C with Mozgov Turiaf AR and STAT we are set..... PF we are SUPER STRONG!!... SF I also believe we
are set!! ( Sorry Melo).... SG with Ill Will and Walker I feel good .... Even Douglas looked good as a 2
PG Felton had flashes but even if he plays out of his mind ( which I dont see... Sorry) we are a injury
away from being real week here!!!!!

jeez dude, you need to pay attention more.

Darko Milicic is a better NBA center than Mosgov. I suppose some rather be in denial. Mosgov is prone to committing stupid fouls and stands in the paint way too long.

Point Blank MosGov isnt better than Deandre Jordan or McGee and they collected splinters last year.

Please tell me how Mosgov is even better than the likes of Dan Gadzuric?

Check out BigC's Timo Highlight. His drive to the basket were he hung on the air. He used his left hand.

I could do this all day. If you think Mosgov has a low ceiling feel free to say why. Age isnt one though... if you know anything about the NBA its that many many many big men, and some great big men simply dont fint their game until their mid or even later 20s. Camby didnt rebound until he was 26. Lots of bigs just take a few years. Hell Mutumbo was better after 30 than before 30. Bigs are simply different.

Mosgov being 24 is a positive. If he was some 19 year old over hyped Euro like Skita or Lampe I would be more ho hum, but at 24 he's ready to be an NBA player IMO.

The 'Gov-ernator basically is McGee with more fundamentals. He's a 7 footer with athleticism that can block it into the tenth row. Will he foul out in fifteen minutes? Sure will. Did McGee have to adjust to that as well as Randolph and Jordan? Yup.

All he has to be is an impact bench player for certain game situations. From what I've seen, he can definitely handle that.

We have to play AR at the pivot at times to put the best five on the floor, so he's not going to play a ton. When he's on the floor though, you'll know it.

I was going to post yesterday, all he needs is a dreamy sky hook. Ah one can wish.

after fish gave you a bucketload of examples you come back with 1 example in the opposite direction and think this makes an argument or adds anything relevant? AnubisADL, I am not sure how you expect to make points on this site, but this is exactly how NOT to do it.

Dude seriously he was posting dudes that were lottery picks. Andrew Bogut(1st pick)? Marcus Camby(2nd pick)? Jermaine O'neal(17th pick out of HIGHSCHOOL)? Dikembembe Motumbo(4th pick)? Kurt Thomas (10th pick)?

I post a guy taken in the 2nd round and you come at me sideways. Come on now. Mosgov wasn't a lottery pick for a reason. Mosgov has DIDDLY in common with those guys he posted.
